Negatory, Kkoeber said 8.5 hours! That could mean 8 and 1/2, or it could mean 8:50....

Lol at my failed logic!

sticks

haha, i like that kind of logic!

i was going for 8 1/2 not .50

This is kind of a trick question, so I´m going to be kind and give the `` Correct Answer ´´ 2 Cookies,

Depending on which side you believe, the actual Battle was 9 hours 30 minutes, this time is accepted as being the actual time of fighting before Napoleon withdrew from the Battle ( French version of what took place ), but according to the Seventh Coalition, Napoleon actualy withdrew 1 hour earlier, so it could also be 8 hours 30 minutes.

So 2 Cookies for the historic answer, 1 for the other sides story of what happened.



Current Cookie count is,

Panic324.....3
Jarhead999.....3
The One Named Mike.....3
djstasavitch.....2
kkoeber.....2
Spl Durkee.....1
and for the sake of arguement.....
sticks.13.....1 ( bout time you showed up )

This one may be a bit tough so I´m going to give 3 cookies for the correst answers, and they have to be exact !!!

What actor has attained the highest U.S. military rank in history for an entertainer?
Name.....
Rank.....
Branch of Service..... ( Hint be very careful how you answer this )

All three answers need to be correct in order to get the cookies, 2 out of 3 won´t cut it.

Good Luck

douglas fairbanks, jr.
he was a full captain
in th U.S. navy

correct?

Quote :

Nope

do it get another try?

Quote :

Nope

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Slob you devil! That is the biggest trick question I've ever heard (If I'm right about my answer)


Name - Ronald Reagan
Rank - Commander in Chief, President of the United States
Branch of Service - Executive Branch

Quote :

Panic, that is probably the best answer I have ever had to this question ( except for the correct one ) but there is only 2 problems, the Executive Branch is not a Millitary Branch of Service, they are Civilians that oversee the Military, and Commander in Chief is not a Military Rank, it is a Civilian Title, sorry. Nice to see that there are others that think outside the box

wow...i actually never thought about that, nice goin panic! props for you if its right

Awww....



Well can I get a cookie if no one else gets the answer? *puppy eyes*

Quote :

If the competition wasn´t so tight I would happily give you one for originality, but the fight is just to close, sorry

*tear*

Well I still love ya Slob. And I be headin to bed, so I wish yall good luck while I'm sleeping! Get the right answer guys!

(I no cheat I looked it up)

James Stewart, who rose to the rank of a brigadier general in the U.S. Air Force Reserve.

what's the cookie count now, slob?

mgunner was the first with the correct answer, he gets the 3 cookies,

kkoeber.....2

Little Itty Bitty, Dr. Ruth, yes the sex therapist, is a former soldier, and she was also seriously wounded in battle during the Israeli War of Independence in 1948. Since all IDF Military personel are trained in Infantry tactics and skills before moving on to a Specialty Skill, saying that she was a scout, marksman, grenadier and so on, just isn´t going to cut it.

What was Dr. Ruths Specialty ?

for an added bonus

What was her Number ? ( equal number of cookies to match )

she was a sharpshooter, but i'll need to get back to you on the number.

Quote :

she was a sharpshooter first, WIKI dosn´t give all the information only a partial cookie unless you are real fast with the correct answer

uh... uh... uh... (begins sweating) uh....
dang... uh, anti-tank?

Sorry Jarhead999, but you went way of course on that answer, what a shame, so close but yet so far.

I'm completely and thoroughly stumped. I can not find ANYTHING other than that she was a sniper and knew how to throw grenades well. And she's a big fan of sex, by the wayside.

She served as a sniper for the jewish underground group "Haganah"

And by number, I think you mean how to contact her? I have no idea what your talking about then.
Something about
For media purposes, contact this number?
(212) 819-1133

finding Dr. Ruth's number is going to make for a interesting web history

Sniper is the Correct Answer,

to clear up what I´m looking for for the Bonus,

Her Number = Confirmed Kills

ooooohhhh, i thought you meant service number!

she had zero confirmed kills.....so her number is 0?
